The development of ISO 9002 quality management standards for Canadian dental practices.

Abstract:

:The department of dentistry of the Hospital for Sick Children has actively maintained a quality assurance system since the early 1980s. In addition, members of the department have taught courses and published articles on risk management and quality assurance for over a decade. The decision to achieve ISO 9002 registration led to an intensive 10-month process to adapt ISO systems and standards to Canadian institutional dental practice. This article describes the ISO registration system and the changes required for an existing quality assurance program to conform to ISO standards.
